Eighteen tuned, metal tines are attached to
the brace below the bridge on the
Acousticaster. The sympathetic vibration of
the tines combines with the vibration of the
strings and solid spruce top to produce a rich
acoustic sound drenched in harmonics. The
Acousticaster was the original Godin guitar to
use the two-chamber design in an
acoustic/electric guitar and the first guitar to
produce acoustic guitar sound with electric
guitar feel.
A few years ago, Robert Godin became
intrigued by the growing ranks of guitarists
that were experimenting with the Oud. The
Oud is a fretless, Middle-Eastern instrument
that uses 11 nylon strings. The scale is very
short and the tuning is not the same as a
guitar. Enter the Glissentar with guitar
scale—25 ½” —and standard guitar tuning.
The Glissentar is surprisingly easy to play
and opens the door to the microtonal sounds
of Asian and Middle Eastern music.
